Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Academic self-efficacy has no significant effect on academic stress (β = 0.050, p = 0.500), rejecting H1. → Liu L 2026
q2 i? Social influence has no significant direct effect on AI dependence (β = 0.121, p = 0.251), rejecting H4. → Liu L 2026
Evidence¶
Liu L 2026¶
Liu L, Zhuang M and Wang J (2026). Are students dependent on AI in writing courses? Analyzing factors influencing dependence on generative AI through the I-PACE model. Front. Psychol. 17:1905037. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2026.1905037
q2 · i? · associational · r?
SEM path tests in the same 229-respondent survey found the two hypothesized direct paths unsupported; the article reports "no significant effect" for ASE→AS and SI→AID with the printed coefficients and p-values. No effect sizes are printed for these null paths.
"ASE has no significant effect on AS (β = 0.050, p = 0.500), SI has no significant effect on AID (β = 0.121, p = 0.251), rejecting hypotheses H1and H4."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Self-Efficacy — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

- Academic self-efficacy was not significantly associated with final test performance — related
- Self-efficacy does not significantly moderate the relationship between AI anxiety and career decisions — related
- Perceived school support, AI learning self-efficacy, and AI perceived usefulness each show negative paths to AI learning anxiety — related
